Dimensional Descent

[Bonus chapter courtesy of Mr. Ham <3 2/6]

From focusing on the speed of victory, Leonel shifted the task of his Dreamscape to dominant victory. He would take no hostages in this game, and he no longer gave a damn about how deeply offended the enemies of the Human Race would become.

Since he had come here, he was already a thorny rose in their otherwise well-trimmed gardens. Since that was the case, he might as well poison the bouquet at the same time.

The True Dream Plane had nine total states that it could be in. With each state you went up, the dangers would be greater, but the rewards would likewise be all the more appetizing as well.

The point of the Challenge was never to kill, much like Leonel had said previously. It was created as a friendly ground to exchange pointers. As for why Contribution Points were necessary to open it, it was because of how expensive the True Dream Plane was to open and run. Everything here needed a great deal of energy and it couldn't be opened just because one felt like it.

This was all to say that the main point of the True Dream Plane was improvement, not battle, not revenge, and certainly not killing.

The reason Leonel was focused on the speed of victory before was one, for Clarence's sake, and two because if he allowed this to drag out for too long, the advantages he had in the beginning could be quickly whittled away.

Although he had made a nice little Tiered system for himself, and it seemed that if he worked hard enough, he'd be able to touch Tier Nine eventually, the harsh truth was that the only reason he was on a level playing field with these behemoths was because of his Sovereignty.

Plus, he also hadn't forgotten that these powers had definitely come with trump cards of their own. He wasn't the only one who might have an advantage of some sort.

Right now, they were probably all focused on finding him as quickly as possible. Leonel wouldn't even be surprised if Clarence's death location had some sort of device that could be used to trap him or track him should he have gotten close.
